Congratulations to Mrs. Kristen Palmer, a third grade math/science/social studies teacher, for being selected as the SDM Teacher of the Year! Mrs. Palmer began her teaching career in 1992 at Cedarwood Phychoeducational Center. In 1994, she moved to a preschool handicap teaching position in McRae and remained there until 1999. Fortunately for the Vidalia City School System, Mrs. Palmer accepted a teaching position in 1999 and has been at Sally Meadows to the present. She has taught both 3rd and 4th grades.

Mrs. Palmer is an exceptional teacher with a true heart for educating children. In addition, she is well known throughout the school for her willingness to help others in any way. SDM is truly a better place because of her devotion to her career, her students, and her co-workers. She is well-deserving of the honor as the SDM Teacher of the Year!
